2. Groups: How to Write a Proposal
OVERVIEW
Proposal writing is an important skill -- you may write research or project proposals in college or your future career and much of your success will be determined by how well you can convince others that the work you want to do is worth doing and that you have the ability to accomplish that work.
The purpose of the written proposal is to save you time by (1) identifying a specific goal and establishing that pursuing that goal is worthwhile and (2) developing a concrete strategy for meeting those goals and verifying that the proposed strategy actually matches the stated goals. (You would be surprised at how many projects' strategies either require huge amounts of irrelevant work for a given set of goals or do a bunch of work and then realize that they still have not addressed their goals).
2. Read and review the Writing a Proposal Outline and Proposal Evaluation. 3. Use the Proposal Evaluation to analyze and annotate each section/paragraph of the example proposal, making sure you comment on every paragraph. How does the example proposal measure up? Are all of the elements included? Anything omitted? How would you score the example overall? What questions do you have after reviewing the example proposal?
Meta-Cognition- complete on back of proposal example: Describe what you now understand about the purpose and process of writing a proposal. Describe how your group will begin the proposal writing process and discuss any concerns you or your group members might have.
Teacher, please collect annotated Writing a Proposal handouts.
